Skinks are so adorable. :D
>>It still looks odd back there now.<<
Every time a big tree falls here, it takes a while to get used to the changed canopy. And I have all the layers of a rainforest: emergent trees (sycamore), canopy trees (mostly walnuts and hackberries), understory trees (mostly mulberries), shrubs (privet, Canadian hemlock, forsythia, etc.), vine (wild grapes!), herbaceous (woodland and prairie plants), ground covers (wild strawberry, lawn, etc.), and roots (sunchoke).
